Early in the week I started making some earrings. I etched some metal pieces and then cut them, sanded them, filed them blackened them, polished them and drilled holes in them.
I then needed to make some ear wires for them to hang on. So I cut pieces of 20 gauge sterling silver wire
and with the torch drew a bead on the end of the wire.
I then shaped them, hammered them, filed them and polished them ready to make the earrings. 
and here are the 4 pairs I managed to complete.
